A very difficult species to see, and photographed in a very typical position, at least in my limited experience of them.

The framing gives the image a sense of intimacy which I like a lot. The twig above its head is a little bit distracting (though not a major worry) and I confess I would have a go at cloning it out.

A bird I have never seen so thanks for that and I do like it certainly different but it seems to work

Well thought out, this really works for me, Phil. Good to this species almost out in the open, this bird is a true skulker.
